Spies Married by Proxy.

CHICAGO. Feb. 1.-The announcement
ia made this evening that August Sp,e.
and Miss Nina Van Zandt have been
married by proxy, the groom being req
resented by his brother. A suburban
justice Of the peace ctficinted. When
Sheriff MatsUll, about two weeks ago.
issued the order t . lhe officials Of The
county Jail not to admit Miss Van Z.nd,
to zee Soies, it was thought that the
matter WAS settled, but IT now appears
that neither Of the couple abandoned
their purpose. The law about marrying
by letter and marriages by proxy MAS
looked no, but nothing was found ex.
cept III regard to marriage Ivy proxy
This Wa finally decided upon, and JUS
tlce E%nglehardt, in the town f Jefferson,
performed the ceremony i'll his office
Saturday night in the presence Of rela-
tiyes Of both parties. He gave it HIS his
opinion that u marriage by proxy would
be binding in law if the proxy Was made
out in due legal fora. He wa comm,>.
stoned to draw up Il form Of proxy, and
spent considerable time in making |,
conform 10 what he thought the law re-.
quired. The license had no yet been
returned to the county clerk AS required
by law. 1t Vial Issued only three weeks
ago, however, and the thirty days al.
lowed tor it, return have not yet expired
Justice E%nglehardt Ii authority for tn.

formed.

SPARKS sUBDUED.
Good Faith Again INDICATED by
the Secretary.

WAsH1NaToN, Jan. 28.-Inthe decision
recently rendered by the secretary nf the
interior, overruling the actipn Of the
commissioner of the general land otfice
cancelling the homestead entry of Sam
uel Wild of the southeast quarter of the
southeast quarter, section 5, township
l02, ange So, Mitchell (Dak.) land dis
trict, the principle is reiterated that u
settler may, if necessity requires, leave
his land for stated periods for the pur-
pose Of earning a livelihood, without in
any way injuring his rights. Wild, in
company with his son, conducted II small
tailor shop in the own Of Mitchell, and
was All industrious man of good habits.
He took up the above stated forty acres
under the homestead law for the purpose
of making u home for himself In time,
and securing a garden plot whereon he
could raise vegetables and grain, amt add
in that way to his income rs u tailor.
He showed good faith in making his im-
provements by building a substantial
house l2xl4 feet, and began his residence
upon his land. He went to the land ON
Saturday, spent Saturday night, Sunday
and Sunday night there, aud not infre-
quently visited the land during the week
for the purpose Of perfectinH his resi-
dence. his business as q tailor, however,
compelling him to enlal IN town and
preventing q continuous residence as
that term has been construed by the gem
oral land 0fHno 1No.s IN 1904 la, orrlSaA
to commute the land, and offered his
proof of residence and the payment of
the purchase money. It was satisfactory
to the local land officers. but the CON-
missioner of the general land office re-
jected his proof and directed him to fur
nish additional evidence Of residence.
The additional evidence was not satisfac-
tory, and the claim was held for cancel
lalion on the ground that the residence
should have been continuous. The Sec
rotary, III deri Ting the case upon the APP
peal of Wild, says hat he thinks Wild
showed good faith in all his movements,
and hal the commissioner Of the general
land office SHOULD have given him the
benefit Of the evidence III this direction.
It is true that his residence could no be
called u continuous one. as u strict inter.
probation Of the law might require, but
the secretary was satisfied that u strict
compliance with the letter Of the law was
not contemplated by congress when it
framed this land legislation. He points
to the rulings he has made in several
cases, allowing pre-emptors and honle-
stead claimants to leave claims tor weeks
and even months at a lime, to earn q live
lihOod, and then reverses the action OF
the commissioner and allows Wild to
perfect his residence to as near a strict
compliance with the law as possible, aud
to submit further proof. The case Will
have the effect of restoring confidence
among pre-emptors and homes cad
claimants OF the poorer class, who have
been unable, as the officers ofthe general
land office should know, to gam IL live
lihOod the first or second year off the
hard sod Of the prairie.

A Monster Maxnet.

BRIDGEPORT Conn.,. Nov. l4.-One OF our
leading army engineers has brought before
the engineers classes OF lato an experiment OF
startling nature. Wonderful results are prom
lsed 1t IL monster magnet made OF Two
hodmah guns. which are Competed at the
miles Of submarine cable. The cable Is soma
that has been used in the torpedo service. It
ner making a powerful electro-magnet when
electricity Is applied that shows strange re-
suits. For instance, bar of railroad iron thirty
feet long IL placed In tho open cannon's mouth,
cannot be drawn out by all the many men that
OF this big magnet was illustrated Saturday
with a 350-pound cannon ball The shot was
placed in the mouth OF one Of the cannons. the
electric current 1t fell Rom its position but
was attracted to the Opposite cannon and
chung to Its side. The positive current waa
then reversed alternately with the negative.
and the heavy, cannon ball played between the
two cannons like q tack between the poles OF Q
toy magnet, Before many days there will be q
public exhibition OF this attractive magnet
